You can get away with adding metal powder up to 1/3 of the volume of the epoxy. That both makes it stronger and better at dissipating heat. Cast it so i has fins like the original cylinder head, but taller to account for the worse material, and i think that thing would probably mow your lawn before it dies.

I was thinking, What if after you made the head you then coated it with a layer of a metallic substance to protect it from burns, like an aluminium foil barrier only a little thicker.
@kensmith56947 жыл бұрын
The bunk of the head needs to be kept cool so some fins are in order. If JB Weld sticks to aluminum foil, just the foil would be enough. The thing the foil would be doing is keeping the burning chemistry away from the epoxy. A thin layer would do that perfectly well. Thicker metal my pop off the surface as it heats up.

I 1st tried RTV silicone, just glob'n it all around the base & spreading it with a fat wire bc fingers couldn't even really reach all around it. That lasted a few weeks. the 2nd time I tried an epoxy putty & that only lasted a few weeks. The 3rd time I used JB & its still holding after nearly a year.

In the Army we had a proprietary form of Epoxy with shreds of titanium in it for strength. We used it for repairs on the engines of tanks, APCs, trucks and just about anything else that required that the repair endure immense amounts of stress, such as a 427 blown Chrysler Hemi Diesel crank bearing housing in the back of the block. One enterprising young feller even made a barrel for an M-3 grease gun from it, and it did yeoman's duty for about 6 magazines. We decided that he'd proved his point and I personally destroyed it.

I know this is an old video but it reminds me of a JB Weld story. In the 80s a kid I knew broke some teeth off the ring gear in his 65 Mustang. Well, having a lot more time than money he took the ring gear out of the axle and washed/decreased it and formed up some teeth out of JB Weld. After it dried he used a dremel tool to cut them to the same height and shape as the originals and put the whole works back together. I told him 'That Shoot(or something close) ain't gonna work!'. He drove the car around the block a couple of times before it broke! I mean Yes it broke but it was pretty impressive that it made it that long! I love all of your videos.

hard to test fuels on a mower, they arnt fussy, the mower will run fine on 87 octane, so will most cars, 93 octane isnt needed on most cars at all. it wont do much for the engine, but sure shell might be using other additives that are better than another brand, more cleaners etc to prevent varnish, but that would take 10ks of miles and a control to know, certainly here in the UK supermarket fuels are always having issues with contamination but not so the major brands such as shell/esso etc

I have to mention after watching this with my Son today and if the large washers were not used between a head bolt and the Spark Plug, the engine would not have run. It’s important to know that the Spark Plug depends on the metal cylinder head threads for its ground. The solution if ever doing this option, if needed, is to use connect a piece of wire between the Spark Plug and a head bolt that connects to the engine block. 😊

You are an extremely clever guy. I watched you very carefully how you did different tasks and you're totally professional. It's nice to know and also from the point of mechanical things, of course, we should always use them within the parameters for which they were designed. What you have shown is that amazing things can be done and motors can survive an awful lot. Most people I know, never change the engine oil in a mower. Just think how much hassle the engine has to deal with, with owners like that. You asked what kind of additive you should test since you are very sceptical about them. I'd like to see Ceramizer tested to see if it can really repair scores in bore or piston and to what extent can it do that say with a very old engine. How far can it really restore all the old wear damage, the light scoring and so forth?

Hello PF, The various tests that you’re conducting are very basic by design but pure genius in the well thought out way that you conclude your test and present the amazing results. What you’re doing could be called a scientific art form for the logical mind. You explain every step of your project in a way that even the self proclaimed web experts should be able to understand. And above all else, on the rare occasions that you make a mistake , you don’t hesitate to mention it and that speaks volumes about your integrity. I ran across your ingenious activities by chance while browsing through this sea of brain dead geeks doing silly things to amuse their simple minds. Now I’m having a difficult time attempting to move on to anything else. Your projects yield results that can used

Years ago I had a tiller that had a tree limb fall on it braking the carburetor and half of the bolting surface off of the block. I used a toilet paper to reform the intake hole and painters tape to make a form then poured JB weld in to "recast" the block then filed it down and tapped the mounting hole. That lasted 7 years. I must say that $5.00 worth of JB Weld paid off time and time again.

Crystalline solids have well-defined edges and faces, diffract x-rays, and tend to have sharp melting points. In contrast, amorphous solids have irregular or curved surfaces, do not give well-resolved x-ray diffraction patterns, and melt over a wide range of temperatures. Amorphous material makes the difference as the concrete endures for more than decades. I love the video

Made an emergency repair with JB Weld to a puncture hole on an aluminum fishing boat over 10 years ago. I filled it in just to use the boat and fish for the day and it worked. Today the hole filled with JB Weld is still there and still not leaking. Of course after seeing that I filled in all the little slower leaking holes and leaky rivets so I dont have to bail water from the bottom of the boat every few hours.

Would have liked to see how long it would have lasted! I also was curious as to how you made that spark plug work considering they usually use the metal they screw into ALSO as the conductor of the negative polarity of the power that make im them spark. Did you achieve that through those two adjacent metal O rings that sit on top of your homemade cylinder head, one of which sat around the spark plug? (BTW, is an O-ring the same as a washer?)
@GGigabiteM10 ай бұрын
If you rewatch the video, you can see the washer under the spark plug is sparking across the washer held in by the head bolt, that's how it's working. Not exactly safe, but it works.

Back in the 70's when I was a kid, my old mans Honda 750 fell over and cracked one of the engine cases. He used something similar (plastic padding) as a temp fix to stop oil leakage, until the new casing came in stock. It worked great and once he removed the cracked case and put the new one on, me being a kid decided to test, just how tough the epoxy was with a hammer. I was amazed that I couldn't break any part of it off and have always since had some in my toolbox, just in case a good, quick repair was needed.

Try installing a box with a SPDT switch and a momentary normally open switch. Black lead from drill press to center pole of SPDT. Wire one side to the momentary and attach short wires to the unused terminals of both switches. Wire nut the 2 short wires to the black wire of the plug. Put the tap in the drill press and set the SPDT so the drill doesn’t run. You can bump the momentary switch to barely move the drill allowing you to tap a perfectly straight hole. I was waiting to see how you were going to make the cooling fins for the JB head... LOL! I really enjoy your videos because they are informative, entertaining, and they make me think!

pla is far to weak. but lulzbot makes a bronze/pla infused filament that I'm sure with 100% full density settings and maybe a later of jb weld between the filament tolerance gaps it would perform well. it is very strong and if lightly shaped with a blow torch and polished looks pretty Damn cool

PLA wouldn't handle the temperatures. Tho it might run for a short bit. I've seen rocket motors made with PVC pipe as the casing which were quite successful but they only burn for a few seconds tops and the propellant burns from the inside out which keeps the heat off the casing until it is about burned out.
